Had to get a new mattress and decided to go with a natural latex version from Sleep E-Z. Latex requires a slat platform base, so I could either buy a new bed frame or make my own. Decided to make my own!
My grandpa let me use his workshop back in my hometown which was so great. I loved working in his shop. My design was based on a super simple platform bed plan, but I updated it with more advanced extra options and the ability to easily remove the slats and take the frame apart. This was my first big carpentry project done almost entirely on my own and I learned so much! It was totally worth DIY’ing.
Had to get the thing back home for the mattress before finishing the headboard, though, so that’s TBD. I know I want it to slant backward a bit, though.
